best solvent to use is propylene glycol, it will dissolve it fast and completely.
Since PG is sometimes hard to find, i use this banana extract you can find in baking sections of a grocery store. It contains ethanol, PG and whatever artficial banana flavor, works every time for etizolam or benzos. It usually takes a day to completely dissolve but i don't agitate the solution or heat it. You could use other flavors as well, but just check the ingredients and if it says PG and ethanol you're good to go.
Just in case you can't find any of this, you'll either have to use isopropyl alcohol (which isn't unsafe in a very saturated solution, so you could make drops and it won't kill you or harm you) or very high proof alcohol, at least 150 proof. I've tried 80 proof and it just isn't strong enough to dissolve most benzos/etizolam that i've encountered.
Are you sure it's alrpazolam and not etizolam or even phenazepam? As the latter 2 are far easier to obtain. I've never known anyone to have a pure pharm powder benzo and i'm pretty sure the places they synth these benzos have insanely tight restrictions so that non is diverted.
Not true in the least!
Alprazolam is by FAR the easiest pure BzD powder to find - remembering to be careful & choose your supplier with the utmost care, it is made by almost every Chinese API manufacturer you come across; use a long-established firm with good reviews as some Johnny-Come-Latelies are known to send below-par powders with fake assay certification, and you may end up with something a lot lower than the usual 99.5% pharma purity. It has recently been subject to higher controls by Chinese Health Authorities on account of all these mushrooming chemical companies and the amount of complaints so is not quite so simple to source as five years ago, however no great problems should be encountered. Indian API suppliers have been much more tightly controlled in line with the new quality standards in force there.
The internet is pretty easy to find such things, and even more so should you have a TOR browser installed.
One does not name sources or give prices here on Bluelight, but it strikes me, having read the relevant rules, that it is in order for me to say you could easily make 2500 x 2mg bars - including binders, fillers and other excipients such as the essential magnesium stearate, for as much as you might pay for, say, a couple of bottles of 50 x Pfizer/Upjohn original U94 2mg XANAX brand bars elsewhere.
The TDP-6 tablet press is cheap and a lot better (higher pressure, plenty available different-shaped punch-dies, hand or electric operation) than its predecessors, making firm, professional tablets at around 150/minute. Widely available but tends to cost more on eBay than from specialised suppliers. In any case I would be very wary of buying one second-hand; I don't see many folk selling such machines unless there's a little problem with it - the cheapest rotary press costs well over $25,000 so upgrading is a big thing and the TDP unlikely to end up on eBay or Amazon Pre-Owned Goods.
Punch dies are around $100 apiece in addition to the 10mm diameter round, single-score die it is supplied with.
As for dosing, best to pay a contract firm to mix your API and tablet mix ('Firmpress' is far and away the best on the 'amateur' market) using the wet granulation process - the ONLY way to ensure every single dosage unit of high potency drugs like alprazolam, etizolam or fenazepam is precisely correct and equal in every tablet.
I have used TDP machines to make herbal tablets & health supplements for over 10 years and can vouch for their efficacy.
